So? Then IIS is part of the OS(going by what your saying), what difference does it make? If the system gets cracked because of this program, whether or not it's integrated into the OS, makes no difference when you loose all of your data.
If your using Gentoo, then just emerge nvidia-kernel and nvidia-glx, and portage will autodetect you running the 2.6 kernel and automatically patch it for you.
Even if this case does get dismissed, there still is IBM's countersuit. I'm sure IBM will still pursue their claims against SCO, when this case is ended once an for all.
No, those rides aren't too dangerous, it's that people are too stupid. Maybe you should think about that nexttime before you decide to go walk the monorail track.
Mozilla does have it's own Mail Composer, last time I checked. Opera doesn't, and for Firebird well you have to get Thunderbird. Usually I'm talking on the Mozilla/Firebird/Thunderbird side of things, when I'm getting people to switch. I also get them to switch out of Outlook aswell, so that's where the spam filter usually comes in.
I've been trying my best to switch people away

New IE Holes Discovered

...from IE. I tell people about the built-in pop-up blocker, and the adaptive spam filter in Mozilla. I also tell people about the nice long list of IE vulnerablities like the ones in this article, I've gotten quite a few to switch away from IE, to either Mozilla, Mozilla Firebird, or Opera. It's all about using the big words when you persuade them to switch.
Not exactly, true. For the most part 2.4.22 was fine, but my network would drop out on my for no reason, I'd have to stop the network daemon, unload the driver module, then load the module, and restart the daemon. I have a Broadcom 4400, I tried both the old driver off the manufacture's CD and the new one in the kernel both did it, so it probably wasn't the drivers fault but something else in the kernel. 2.4.23 doesn't seem to be a problem.
Not all the way true, if all the motherboard vendors didn't use Trusted Computing, Microsoft would be forced to switch or people would be complaining to Microsoft. What would Microsoft do, complain to the vendor of their motherboard, most people don't know who makes their motherboard, Microsoft is the only face out of the group of the faceless. Software should be built around hardware, not the other way around.
I'd use KDE, however it to me just feels too bloated. I don't know why, it just does to me. Gnome to me feels like the perfect balence between minimalist, and bloatware. I'm sure I could streamline it if I want to but I don't have the time, however 3.2 does look very interesting.
It's great that there is going to be another choice distro, but in all honesty, it really doesn't matter. What matters is getting companies like Adobe to port Photoshop and there other products, and Apple to port Quicktime and iTunes, and Game companies to port games, etc. Without these things (not saying that iTunes is most important), Linux on the desktop will never succeed. I do think though Abobe will port Photoshop to Linux within a version or two, since Hollywood is a big user of Linux. However, to get a good grab at the marketshare(this may not be the main point of the project, but what's the point if no one uses it) there has to be commercial games. No doubt about it. I know plenty of people who refuse to use Linux because of the lack of games. Once these key things fall into place, Linux on the desktop will take off.
Because the Chinese government isn't allowed to modify the code themselves, they have to request that Microsoft does it, and there is about 10-15% of the code that they haven't seen.
their research. If they did, I don't think they would be buying something from such a hypocritical company. We'll sell you Linux, but we don't think you should be buying it. That mentallity all in itself spells uncertianty for continued support. IBM who vowed to support Linux 100%(See here) seems like a better company to go through, though I think they are already helping the Chinese government with Linux. That's the last I heard anyway.
As for Red Hat 9 losing money... How much is Fedora going to lose? After all, at least RH9 recouped some money through retail sales and paid support, and of course the hundreds of WS/ES/AS deployments it lead to. Whereas Fedora costs nothing, sells nowhere, has no paid support and is not likely going to result in nearly as many sales of Red Hat's high end commercial offerings.
Maybe that's the point. It's not meant to make money. It's free, so the less it costs to make it, the better.
Red Hat didn't cut their desktop aspirations, they opened their development model and allowed outsiders to contribute to what the product should be. It's called Fedora. It's Red Hat sponsored. They were not making any real money off of Red Hat free version, so why bother keeping something that looses money. They created Fedora out of it, so the community can keep it going, while they focus on where the real money is, the enterprise industry, where companies actually need support for their product, and are not going to use some LUG group. Maybe you should think about why they did what they did instead of shooting them down, as if they are really pulling away from Linux.
Nothing of monetary value is coming out of the FSF
Maybe that's why they call it the Free software movement.
The corporate versions of Linux are far from free.
Really? Then why can I download Red Hat AS, ES, or WS and install them on any of the computers I own for free. The support you have to pay for if you want it, the software however remains free, and freely distributable.
The love seems to be mutual. Jaguar and Panther were both codenames for Microsoft products.
Panther - Port of Windows NT Win32 core to run atop Cougar. Project subsequently abandoned in favor of Chicago.
Jaguar - Retail implementation of Cougar (DOS 7.00). Major features included more powerful and consistent command-line options, improved NLS support, Flash Memory Filesystem, etc. Subsequently merged with Cougar and Stimpy (but not Panther) to become Chicago.
Wolf ET uses a heavily modified Q3 Engine, if they were both exactly the same both would have comparable numbers, however Wolf ET's Q3 pushes more polyies and other enhancements.
I somehow doubt Lucent could afford to buy Novell, they aren't even profitable anymore. Their stock price is around 2 - 3 dollars. I know that not the only thing that matters, but it's a good inication that it isn't the best off company right now.
but was then bought by Activision. It's a real shame to because I looks as if we won't get a Linux client now for Call of Duty. Please post here that we need a Linux client for this game.

Sorry, no one cares about these shitty books, this section should be closed down.
I have a first-generation TI-83, you insensitive clod!
Because it was a bug in the kernel and wasn't specifically affecting one distro.

CD-Rs/CD-RWs were not affected by the FLUSH_CACHE bug, only the CD-Roms were. I think it even says so on the LG site.

Why would I want to choose a DRM'd file over a non-DRM'd file? That statement makes no sense. What, do you work for the RIAA?
